Software is no exception. Yeah, people are lazy and will instinctively click "continue" to dismiss annoying popups, but humans building the software can and do add things like "retype the volume name of the data that you want ultra-destroyed."

Aviation learned this the hard way, that automation should be adapted to how humans actually work and not on how we wish we worked.
